ma-nee chacaby has faced numerous challenges in her life that have prompted her to embark on a path of spiritual healing through art. she was born in thunder bay, ontario and was adopted by a french canadian family. she was then found and returned home to her cree kokum at the age of two to be raised in a remote ojibwe community north of lake nipigon. being a two-spirited elder and storyteller, she uses various media for personal and community spiritual healing. she is visually impaired and her art tells a story of the journey people face each day. ma-nee has also authored, a two-spirit journey: the autobiography of a lesbian ojibwa-cree elder; a compelling and harrowing, but ultimately uplifting story of resilience and self-discovery.
